Reviews
I have a 2024 Jetta S with the 6 speed. Mine used about a 1/4 of a quart of oil in the first 500 miles. I topped it off and it hasn't use any since, now at 5K.
Pros: low oil consumption
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 5000 km
'17 f150 5.0l with 150k running 5w-20 motorcraft. Not a single problem and this was used to haul a 12' steel enclosed trailer loaded from day 1 and the wind blows a LOT here. Doesnt use a drop of oil.
Pros: no problems, no oil consumption
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 241402 km
I run motorcraft in my mustang and have zero complaints.
Pros: zero complaints

This one was done at the local VW dealership where they added 6L of VW oil and were nice enough to collect a sample of the oil for me to send off to Blackstone. The oil in this sample had higher quantities of wear metals present vs the 3rd sample, but that is to be expected as there were more than twice as many miles on the oil.
Pros: stellar report at 12,228
Cons: higher wear metals
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 12228 km
I had a 2009 Jetta diesel that used a bit of oil until it hit 60000 miles, then it stopped and did not use ANY between the 8000 mile intervals I used.
Pros: stopped oil consumption
Cons: used a bit of oil
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 60000 km
I did first oil change on Atlas at 5k then did 10k changes, but the 3.6 is lethargic compared to the GTI which I have been doing about every 4k miles.
Pros: regular oil changes
Cons: 3.6 is lethargic
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 8046 km
I've added only one quart of oil to all the VWs I have owned over the past 35 years. I check the oil every 3 months, and get the oil and filter changed annually. I don't think that modern engines consume oil, at least, not for the first 100K miles of their life.
Pros: minimal oil consumption
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 160934 km
My previous MK7 GTI used a quart about every 3K miles from the day it was new until I traded it at 212K.
Pros: high mileage achieved
Cons: oil consumption every 3K
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 341180 km
Just keep the right viscosity oil in it and monitor the oil temp. You might be able to read oil temp from you ECU through the obd port. 120-130C is very ok with good synthetic oil.
I blew up a VW polo with the wrong oil and high oil temps.
Pros: good synthetic oil ok
Cons: wrong oil high temps
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Polo
After reading this thread I decided to check the paperwork on my oil change that I got from a dealer last week. All it says is 6 G-E60-020-1B-DSP ENG. OIL Net 7.80 Total 46.80 which I assume means the "6" is the quantity. As far as I can tell, that part number equals VW 508.00 Spec oil. My car is a 2019 1.8L and the label under the hood clearly says 502 or 504 oil is required.
Pros: identified incorrect oil
Cons: incorrect oil used
Part number: G-E60-020-1B-DSP
